As the November presidential election draws closer, amid the seemingly incessant campaign advertisements is another more bipartisan campaign working to get students registered to vote. However, for Ohio State students not from Columbus or Ohio, knowing what address to register at might be confusing. A student may register to vote at his or her school address “if the student regards that place as his/her residence and registers to vote. Otherwise, the student must vote in his/her home community if registered,” according to the Franklin County Board of Elections. Residence is defined by Ohio law as “the place to which, whenever you are absent, you have the intent to return.” If students claim their campus address as their residence, they must “intend to remain here indefinitely,” said Paul Beck, an OSU political science professor. OSU political science professor Richard Gunther said when students register at their school address, “their registration at their permanent address will eventually be canceled, so students should not attempt to vote there.” This definition of home and what students classify as their residence, can be confusing for many. “Voter registration laws are ambiguous when it comes to student voting,” Beck said. “Election officials have been lenient in their interpretations of permanency, allowing students to register at their campus address.” A voter’s residence determines which offices and issues they are eligible to vote on. This is particularly

Laws about what address OSU students can use to register to vote are unclear to many. important in this year’s presidential election because many believe Ohio’s outcome will play a crucial role in determining who will be the next president. Some students chose to vote absentee rather than change the address of their voter registration while attending school. Austin Rausch, a fourth-year in computer and information science, is registered to vote in his hometown of Marysville, Ohio. Rausch said he has voted absentee in previous elections while being in school and plans to vote absentee in the November election. Kelly Hurlburt, a third-year in dance, said she has not voted in any election while at OSU and “probably won’t” vote in the November election. Hurlburt is registered in her hometown of Middletown, Ohio.

Through cutthroat commercials and advertisements that have saturated almost all outlets of media, Ohioans have witnessed from the sidelines a fierce competition for a U.S. Senate position. This November, Sherrod Brown will fight to defend his coveted Senate seat against Republican Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel. Brown, a Mansfield, Ohio, native, has held numerous positions prior to his seat representing Ohio in the U.S. Senate, including serving as the Ohio Secretary of State from 1983 to 1991, a representative to the U.S. House of Representatives from 1975 to 1982 and a member of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. He has held his Senate seat since 2007. Sadie Weiner, spokeswoman for Friends of Sherrod Brown, released statements from Brown in an email, saying he is “running for re-election to fight for every job, every day in every way I know how.” Namely: building upon successes in manufacturing with the auto rescue, protecting American workers and making education more affordable and taking advantage of emerging industries like oil and gas, and clean energy. Brown is also working to protect access to the ballot box, particularly for students and minorities, as well as women’s rights for health care decisions and earning equal pay for equal work. Brown was a strong proponent of the 2009 auto bailout. “I’m proud to have led the charge to pass the auto rescue package, helping to protect nearly 850,000 Ohio jobs,” Brown said in the email
With the upcoming November election, Republican Ohio Treasurer and U.S. Senate candidate Josh Mandel has been campaigning to convince Ohio voters he should represent the Buckeye state over incumbent Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown. Though Mandel’s term as state treasurer does not end until 2015, the Republican had announced his bid to run for Senate in early March. Mandel did not respond to The Lantern’s request for comment. During his sophomore year at Ohio State, Mandel was elected Undergraduate Student Government president. “It’s very rare to be elected as sophomores,” said Taylor Stepp, current USG president. Stepp said Mandel “represents all viewpoints of Ohio State” and is impartial to both campaigns. Mandel was re-elected for a second term as USG president in 1999, another rare accomplishment, Stepp said. After graduating in 2000, Mandel joined the U.S. Marine Corps where he actively served until 2008. During that time, Mandel spent two tours in Anbar Province, Iraq, as an intelligence specialist. He attended Case Western Reserve University, located in Cleveland, where he received his law degree in 2003. In that same year, Mandel was elected to the city council for Lyndhurst, Ohio, a Cleveland suburb, where he served for two years. While Brown was running for Senate in 2006, Mandel took his career to the state level where he ran for the 17th District of the Ohio House of Representatives, in Northeast Ohio. Mandel served as state representative and was re-elected for a second term in 2008.

However, Hurlburt said she would vote if she was registered in Columbus. “It would definitely make it easier,” she said. An additional source of confusion might occur if the address that appears on a student’s driver’s license does not match the student’s election registration address. “To guard against that source of confusion, it would be best for students to bring to the polling place a copy of a utility bill with their campus-area address,” Gunther said. Thirty-eight states, including Ohio, and the District of Columbia have laws that incorporate some kind of student choice into where a student can register to vote, according to an article published in 2006 by the Institute for Public Affairs and Civic Engagement at Salisbury University in Maryland. “The student vote needs to be counted,” said Vytautas Aukstuolis, a second-year in public affairs. Aukstuolis is a student volunteer for the Obama campaign and works on campus getting students to register to vote. “We definitely do want (students) to know what their options are,” Aukstuolis said. Though he works for President Barack Obama’s campaign, he said he does not try to sway students to vote for Obama when they register. “I know I’ve registered a lot of Republicans,” Aukstuolis said. Obama has visited OSU’s campus four times in the last two years, his latest visit to Columbus was Sept. 17 where he gave a campaign speech in German Village. Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has never visited OSU’s campus, but is scheduled to make a campaign stop Wednesday morning in Westerville, Ohio, about twenty minutes from OSU.

Frozen food doesn’t smell too great when it spoils, and it spoils fast. That’s why when 1,200 students were evacuated from Park-Stradley Hall for three nights after a Sept. 16 water main break, some people were concerned. The building lost amenities such as hot water, drinking water, heating, air conditioning and electricity for several days following the break. The loss of electricity affected any food students were storing in their refrigerators. “It’s not a smell anyone would want to have,” said Dave Isaacs, communications and media relations manager for Student Life. Hall staff posted signs on doors Monday and Tuesday to tell residents to remove the food from their refrigerators, said Colin Amicon, a first-year in exploration. “(When we were out) they checked rooms, they
It’s not a smell anyone would want to have. Dave Isaacs Communications and Media Relations manager for Student Life checked for damages,” Amicon said. “They probably checked the fridges, too.” Isaacs said the smell would’ve been enough of an indication of abandoned food. “I am not aware that anyone went refrigerator to refrigerator to check, but had anything been left, we would have probably smelled it,” Isaacs said. Isaacs said students were requested to either throw the food away or take it to a friend’s to store it. At an event Friday at the Ohio Union, which was also closed the night of Sept. 16 due to the water
main break, students were welcomed back to their dorms with some food to help restock what they might have lost. Items like apples, milk, cereal and frozen mac and cheese were given out, Isaacs said. “We wanted to acknowledge that people lost stuff,” he said. However, some students said they didn’t see all of the foods Isaacs listed. “They had that party the other day at the Union and they gave us a bunch of canned foods and stuff, but nothing frozen,” Amicon said. For some students, that wasn’t enough. “I kind of lost a lot of money on all the food in my fridge, and my mom made me homemade stuff, and all of that spoiled, so it’s kind of unfortunate,” said Molly Simeur, a first-year in pre-nursing. Students were permitted to return to their rooms Sept. 19. Heating and air conditioning are the only amenities still not functioning after Sept. 21.

campus OSU shoots $100K into South Campus basketball courts CHAYTON NYE Lantern reporter nye.87@osu.edu A basketball court with cracks in the pavement and an outdated color scheme has undergone a nearly $100,000 makeover. Kurt Schooley, assistant director of Outdoor and Satellite Facilities, said the recently revamped 11th Avenue basketball courts were completed during a four-week span between mid-August and mid-September. The plans for the court restorations included new backboards, basketball poles and rims. Schooley said these changes to the south outdoor courts needed to be made to match the design of the rest of campus. “Eleventh Avenue was the only courts that we had left that had the old fan-shape style, fiberglass type backboard,� Schooley said. “And now we got the clear acrylic, basically unbreakable backboard with breakaway rims so that they match all of our other courts.� Schooley said the renovation was a routine upgrade. “It’s something we try to do with all of our outdoor courts, not to that extent, but we always try and maintain our asphalt surfaces of our courts every five to seven years and it was time for 11th Avenue basketball to receive a bit of an upgrade.� Another major change was two inches of fresh asphalt layered over the existing basketball courts. Schooley explained that typical university protocol before repaving outdoor courts is to repair cracks in the asphalt. Due to extensive damages to the surface, Schooley said that thorough crack repair was not “economically feasible� and it made more sense to start over with a fresh coat. Schooley said the project budget met expectations. The final cost for the renovations totaled $99,000.
“That (money) comes from a fund within rec sports called capital improvement funds,� Schooley said. “There is a certain pot of money that is set aside for facility improvements such as this each year that we do and this was one of the projects that we got in with this year.� Some students seem pleased with the results of the upgrade. “I think it’s a vast improvement over last year,� said Michael Morris, a fourth-year in psychology. “They (OSU) have so much money at their disposal that I’m glad that some of their resources are finally going to the student body, who cares about athletics and not just the students that are on the teams. So it’s nice that they are trying to improve the resources, like the hoops, the courts, all that stuff.� Evan Lovejoy, a fourth-year in strategic communication, said he thinks these changes have been needed for a while. “It was much needed,� Lovejoy said. “My freshman year, I walked by those (the basketball courts) every day and the backboards are trash, the nets were hanging down, the concrete was chipped. It was just poor quality basketball for the amount of people that used it.� Lovejoy said the new courts are an upgrade from the old ones. “I wish we had them (the new basketball courts) my freshman year,� Lovejoy said. “It just looks really nice and I think they really needed it.� One final change to the 11th Avenue basketball courts could likely please the majority of OSU students. “Rather than going back to the existing color scheme, which was kind of a green and a tan color, they are now kind of a scarlet and grey color scheme,� Schooley said. The 11th Avenue basketball courts are open daily. Lighting is available from sunset to 2 a.m. throughout the year.

Michael Eicher, the new senior vice president for Advancement at OSU.
Ohio State has hired a new senior vice president for Advancement, according to a Monday university release. According to the university release, Michael Eicher, who is currently the senior vice president for External Affairs and Development at Johns Hopkins University, will start his position with OSU Nov. 1. Eicher will “oversee the full integration of OSU’s fundraising, alumni relations and communications efforts, and lead the university’s current $2.5 billion campaign.� Gayle Saunders, university spokeswoman, said in an email that Eicher will make a $700,000 per year salary and said he is “among the nation’s most accomplished leaders in higher education fundraising.� According to a public database listing the salaries of OSU employees, only four employees have a higher salary than Eicher will have, including President E. Gordon Gee. The most recent numbers available in the database were from 2010.

Eicher will be replacing Jeff Kaplan, who was appointed to the position in April 2011 after the sudden death of his predecessor Andrew Sorensen. Kaplan however, will still hold a position at the university. “Jeff Kaplan will report to (Gee) and will continue to work with senior leaders throughout the university on projects critical to the university’s success,� Saunders said. Further details about his position were not provided Tuesday. In a Sept. 10 interview with The Lantern, Gee said OSU “is in the best financial shape of any institution in the country.�

Brown from 1A statements. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My opponent doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with the auto rescue, in fact, he said I was un-American for voting for it. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong, he knows it and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d vote for it again in a heartbeat. Because of the auto rescue, plants across Ohio are thriving for the first time in years.â&#x20AC;? But the auto industry is not the only sector of the economy Brown plans to focus on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We must continue to rebuild our manufacturing sector, and that starts with leveling the playing field for American workers by standing up to China,â&#x20AC;? Brown stated in the email. In 2011, Brown led the passage of the currency manipulation bill in the Senate. This bill would impose penalties, including possible tariffs, on nations that manipulate their currencies, namely China. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop fighting in Washington until my bill becomes law,â&#x20AC;? Brown stated in the email. Brown is also fighting to make education more affordable for Ohio students.
Mandel from 1A Two years later, Mandel ran for State Treasurer of Ohio, defeating incumbent Kevin Boyce with 54.8 percent of the vote. Drew Stroemple, president of the OSU College Republicans, said Mandel would be a stark contrast to Brown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has a strong conservative record,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need a senator from Ohio that takes the lead on issues.â&#x20AC;? If elected, Considine said Mandel is committed to solving the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Improving the economy is his No. 1 priority,â&#x20AC;? said Travis Considine, a spokesman for Mandelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campaign. While Mandel would work with lawmakers to drive job growth, he would also work to reduce the deficit, Considine said, an Mandel would support a balanced budget amendment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The national debt is one of our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest threats,â&#x20AC;? Considine said. Health care is another important topic in the upcoming election. While Brown voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Mandel would fully repeal the law, Considine said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He would go back to the drawing board and work toward meaningful reform with bipartisan support,â&#x20AC;? he said. The Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, has been unpopular with some Ohio voters, based on the passage of Issue 3 in 2011, Stroemple said. Issue 3 was the Ohio Health Care Freedom Amendment that was designed â&#x20AC;&#x153;to preserve the freedom of Ohioans to choose their health care and
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Education should be a right, not a privilege,â&#x20AC;? Brown stated in the email. He has fought to increase federal funding for education and introduced legislation to prevent interest rates on federal Stafford Loans from doubling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My opponent had numerous opportunities to stand with me against hiking interest rates on student loans, but he refused to support my bill,â&#x20AC;? Brown stated in the email. But despite Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intentions, Drew Stroemple, president of Ohio Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College Republicans, believes that Brown has already had his chance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The big issue is simply failed leadership,â&#x20AC;? Stroemple said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re senator, you have a responsibility to do a job. (Brown) hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t passed budget in three years. He simply goes to Washington and plays by (his) own rules. If we want things to be different, we need a different person in there.â&#x20AC;? According to a Sept. 12 poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports, Brown leads Mandel 49 percent to 41 percent, with 7 percent undecided and 3 percent preferring another candidate.
health care coverage,â&#x20AC;? according to the amendmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal. However, Mandel supports the provision to allow young adults to stay on their parents insurance and also supports preventing those with pre-existing conditions from being denied coverage, Considine said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is (also) a strong advocate for health savings accounts,â&#x20AC;? he said. Yet Michael Flannagan, the communications director for OSU College Democrats said, Mandelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policies would not favor the middle class. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fighting for us but for traditional Republican stances that benefit the wealthy.â&#x20AC;? Aside from economic issues, Mandel is also a social conservative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is staunchly pro-life and believes marriage is between a man and a woman,â&#x20AC;? Considine said. Considine said in areas of foreign policy, Mandel is a strong supporter of Israel, believing Israelis are one of the Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest allies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re constantly facing foreign threats,â&#x20AC;? Stroemple said, adding that Mandelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military record would help â&#x20AC;&#x153;toughen him as a leader,â&#x20AC;? especially when dealing with Iran. According to a Sept. 12 poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports, Brown leads Mandel 49 percent to 41 percent, with 7 percent undecided and 3 percent preferring another candidate. While Brown has the lead with about six weeks to the election, some people think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s any manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a tight race,â&#x20AC;? Stepp said.

OSU field hockey features foreign flavor Grant Gannon Lantern reporter gannon.78@osu.edu Being a Division I college athlete and balancing classes is hard enough. Now add traveling thousands of miles from your home and family to play in a foreign country. Of the 22 girls on Ohio State’s field hockey team, more than 25 percent of them come from countries outside of North America. Among the six players, they have to travel an average of almost 4,000 miles to return home. Contextually, the distance between Columbus and Los Angeles is almost 2,000 miles. Freshman midfielder Emma Royce, from Kingston upon Thames, U.K., said moving so far from her family never bothered her. “I didn’t have a problem with it because I know they supported my decision like 100 percent, and you get a new family when you play with your team,” Royce said. “I’m just enjoying it so much and I am so busy you don’t even think about it.” The freshman has started in nine of the Buckeyes’ ten games and scored two goals. Junior midfielder Arielle Cowie,
from Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, is from the hometown closest to Columbus of the six girls, being just more than 2,400 miles from home. She started at midfield in all 21 games last season, posting two goals and one assist, and has started all ten games this year, but has yet to score a point. Moving away from her home was not as easy for Cowie, she said, but now she feels at home. “My first year was a bit difficult because, I mean, like I just uprooted myself from home and (came) to this strange place. So I was very, very skeptical at first. But as soon as I got here everyone has been so, so welcoming and now this feels like my home,” Cowie said. When it comes to recruiting the international players, the head coach or assistants will take trips to other countries to see talent, like in the case of Royce’s recruitment. “One of the Ohio State’s coaches was at my national final and … when he got back to America he saw my videos circulating as well and that’s when he emailed me,” Royce said. “I had seen a couple of other American

Despite a starting lineup consisting of all freshmen and sophomores, the Ohio State men’s golf captured its first victory of the season at the Windon Memorial. Freshman Max Rosenthal led the Buckeyes to a first-place finish out of 15 teams with a final score of 29-over 881 at the Skokie Country Golf Course in Glencoe, Ill. Rosenthal finished the first round of the tournament tied for 37th place with a score of 77 but turned things around with a second round score of 72, and a final round score of 70 to tie for 8th place individually. OSU went to the top of the leader board after finishing the first round in ninth place. The Eden Prairie, Minn., native attributed his aggressive comeback to his conservative play. “My game strategy was really conservative and I was just trying to hit a lot of fairways and greens,” Rosenthal said. “Just a matter of keeping a good mental focus because the course we played was really tough, but my strategy really helped out.” Not only was it Rosenthal’s first time leading the team, it was also his first tournament in the Buckeyes’ starting lineup. “I was a little nervous,” Rosenthal said. “I

Meyer: Braxton Miller ‘a lot different’ from 2011 Spartans game evan speyer Senior Lantern reporter speyer.10@osu.edu The No. 14 Ohio State Buckeyes are scheduled to travel to East Lansing, Mich., this weekend for its Big Ten Conference opener against No. 20 Michigan State. Coaches from both teams weighed in on the teams’ meeting and discussed the quarterback position during a Tuesday teleconference. A shot at redemption The last time OSU matched up with the Spartans didn’t go so well for the Buckeyes. The 10-7 loss marked the first time since 1999 that the Spartans beat the Buckeyes, and the first time an OSU team dropped its conference opener since 2004. It was also the first Big Ten start for quarterback Braxton Miller. The then-freshman Miller struggled mightily in his conference debut, completing just five of 10 passes for 56 yards and an interception. First-year OSU coach Urban Meyer said that his sophomore signal-caller has come a long way since then. “It’s pretty dramatic,” said Meyer. “He’s a lot different now.” Miller will have a shot at redemption against a staunch Spartan defense that has allowed 11.8 point per game this season, 11th best in the country. Ready to ring the Bell? OSU ranks last in the Big Ten conference in total defense, which Meyer said is “very alarming.” It now faces its toughest test yet this weekend, in MSU sophomore running back Le’Veon Bell. Bell ranks second nationally in rushing yards per game, highlighted by a 210-yard outburst in the team’s opener against then-No. 24 Boise State.

Meyer said sophomore linebacker Ryan Shazier is a big part of the defense’s game plan, with the task of plugging holes in the middle to contain Bell. When asked if the sophomore linebacker is up for the challenge, Meyer quipped, “he better be.” “This will be a great test for him,” Meyer said. “I have a lot of confidence in him obviously.” Dantonio Compares Quarterbacks MSU coach Mark Dantonio called Miller a “dynamic player,” while praising the quarterback’s running abilities. But containing mobile quarterbacks is not a foreign challenge for the Spartans. Miller has 441 rushing yards on 67 carries this season, leading all quarterbacks aside from Michigan’s Denard Robinson, who has rushed for the same amount of yards on one less carry.
Robinson has been one of college football’s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks the past two seasons, but consistently struggled against the Spartans. In the team’s two meetings with Robinson starting under center, MSU prevailed against its in-state rival, while holding Robinson below his season average on the ground. While comparing Miller and Robinson, Dantonio said, “there are certainly some similarities, but differences as well. Braxton has more tailback type features back there, he’s a spin runner on contact, but he runs the power at times. He can elude you as well.” Dantonio was the defensive coordinator at OSU from 2001-2003. While at MSU, he has posted a 1-2 record against the Buckeyes, beating his former club for the first time last season.

Members of the OSU menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf team pose with the Windon Memorial championship trophy Sept. 24. OSU finished in 1st place out of 15 teams.
Golf from 4A started off with four bogeys right away and coach came up to me and said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;All right, you got your nerves out of the way, now just go out there and play with confidence,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and then I started making some puts and made a comeback.â&#x20AC;? Like Rosenthal, Buckeyes golfer sophomore Grant Weaver also made a comeback from 18th place after the first round to 12th place after the final round, finishing the tournament with a score of 220. Similarly, Weaver attributed his comeback to playing safe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My strategy was to work with what I got because I was struggling hitting the ball so I tried to put myself in position where I could get up and down for par,â&#x20AC;? Weaver said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I played safe because I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on top of my game all week.â&#x20AC;? Fellow Buckeyes sophomore Boo Timko and freshman Tee-K Kelly followed Weaver, tied for 17th place with a final score of 223.
Freshman Michael Bernard rounded out the team lineup, tying for 37th place with a final score of 15-over 228. Sophomore Logan Jones competed individually placing 55th with a final score of 234 in his first tournament of the season. Coach Donnie Darr was pleased with the way the team finished the tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played exceptional the last two rounds,â&#x20AC;? Darr said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our first round score wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really good but we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play as bad as the score indicated, we just had a couple bad holes that drove our score up but overall pretty good this week.â&#x20AC;? The Buckeyes are scheduled to will take a break from tournament play before hosting the Jack Nicklaus Invitational at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, Oct. 8-9. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good field at Muirfield,â&#x20AC;? Darr said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great venue and a great opportunity for our players to play in front of their home fans.â&#x20AC;?
universities, but I had never been to Ohio State, but I did my research and it felt like the right place.â&#x20AC;? Coach Anne Wilkinson said the farthest she has traveled to recruit players was Europe. Sometimes a player will come to the U.S. and the coaches will see them there, like in Cowieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s situation. Her club coach in Trinidad also coached a U.S.-based team and Cowie traveled up with her coach to an indoor tournament in Virginia Beach. While at the tournament, an OSU assistant coach went to see her play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After that we kept in touch, and I sent in a video, and we just kept talking and they offered me a scholarship,â&#x20AC;? Cowie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But initially, they found out about me because there were two girls from Trinidad on (OSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) team before. So I guess when they were looking to recruit people my name came up.â&#x20AC;? Wilkinson, who is in her 17th season with the Buckeyes, said she has had players from Trinidad on her teams since her first job at American University. Coaches do recruit the players but Wilkinson believes that recruiting is a two-way street. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They pursue OSU. Field hockey is a very popular sport internationally,â&#x20AC;? Wilkinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a pretty good pipeline of players who want to come to Ohio State.â&#x20AC;? When the players arrive in Columbus there are adjustments that have to be made. For Cowie, the biggest transition was adjusting to the weather extremes. The average high temperature of her hometown is between 85 and 88 degrees all year, while in Columbus, the average high varies from 37 degrees to 86 degrees from winter to summer, according to Weather.com. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Caribbean is so scorching hot and when I came up it was my first winter. So that was kind of a shock, but by now I am accustomed to it in a way,â&#x20AC;? Cowie said. For Royce, the biggest difference is the traveling. The U.K. is 94,530 square miles compared to the U.S. which is 3,794,000 square miles. It would take 40 U.K.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to equal the size of the U.S. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coming from a small country, the farthest you will go is like three hours, and now I am going on a coach for like seven-and-ahalf hours, eight hours sometimes, and getting on planes to go to games,â&#x20AC;? Royce said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very, very different.â&#x20AC;? Other international players on the team are sophomore midfielder Mona Frommhold, from Berlin, junior back Nora Murer, from Luzern, Switzerland, senior forward Berta Queralt and junior midfielder Paula Pastor-Pitarque, both from Barcelona, Spain.

Artist sides with career of superheroes Hailey kim Lantern reporter kim.3712@osu.edu “POW!” Thor just pummeled a bad guy and saved the earth. With his almighty power and his hammer, Mjolnir, Thor seems as though he can easily rule the world. But without the superpowers of comic book artist and writer Alan Davis, Thor wouldn’t even grace the pages of some comic books. With a pen and ink, Davis gave life to countless superheroes including Thor, the X-Men, Captain America and Batman. “I’ve never counted, but I’ve done a lot of works,” Davis said in an email. This weekend, Davis is scheduled to bring his talents to Columbus as a special guest for Wizard World Ohio Comic Con. Like many other fans of Ohio Comic Con, Davis said when he was a kid, he read lots of comics. Being from the U.K., he mainly read British comics; however, he said he can’t discuss comic books without talking about American comics. “When I was a kid, the first U.S. comics I read were actually black and white U.K. reprints of the early issues of ‘Fantastic Four,’ ‘Avengers,’ ‘Thor,’ etc.,” Davis said. As a young kid, drawing was his hobby and his anticipated future. “I can’t recall a time I didn’t draw,” Davis said. “My parents encouraged me and my siblings to be creative,

Alan Davis is scheduled to be a special guest at Wizard World Ohio Comic Con, held Sept. 28-30 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. so we explored a variety of creative pursuits.” Like his parents hoped, Davis channelled his creativity as an adult and started drawing “Captain Britain” as his first professional work for Marvel U.K. in 1980. After five years, DC Comics hired Davis to draw “Batman and the Outsiders,” which gave him chances to work with American companies.
After snagging the position at DC Comics, Davis decided to stay working in the U.S., which he said houses one of the biggest comic book fanbases in the world. Davis said there is a reason why people, including him, love superheroes. “The ideas of being powerful and heroic have always had an appeal, as we can see from countless
mythological creations that have survived from ancient history to the modern day,” Davis said. “I suppose at some core level we all want to be unique and special.” Christina Gillis, a fourth-year in marketing, said she loves the superheroes that David draws. “My favorite superhero is Storm from X-Men,” Gillis said. “I don’t read comic books, but still love superheroes … Not just because they’re fun to read or watch, but they remind me of my childhood. I grew up watching the cartoons that the characters were in.” Ryan Collier, a second-year in political science and criminology, said even though he never really got into comic books, he appreciates them. “It usually has a really good story, even though you know it’s not real. But it’s still something to fight to be like one day,” Collier said. “Because the story is already interesting enough, directors like Christopher Nolan could build up something amazing through their movies.” Davis said he hopes people will eventually come to like comic books as much as they like the superheroes that are in them. Wizard World Ohio Comic Con is scheduled to be held Friday through Sunday at the Greater Columbus Convention Center, located at 400 N. High St.

The Firepower Records Tour is blazing through the nation with dubstep at its helm. And with artist Datsik steering the way, the tour is bringing some warped bass sound to Columbus. The dubstep artist along with Delta Heavy, Bare Noize and AFK is scheduled to perform 9 p.m. Thursday at The Bluestone, located at 583 E. Broad St. Datsik, whose real name is Troy Beetles, is a 24-year-old from British Columbia. Beetles said that in touring across North America he’s sharing his warped bass beats and throwing huge parties along the way. Warped bass is a sound that can be described as “someone falling down the stairs,” Beetles said. “The music is a dash of hip-hop and punk mixed over electronic and that heavy bass.” Beetles said his older brothers and the music they passed down to him have been a large influence on the music he creates. “I had two older brothers that gave me their hand-me-downs of CDs and music,” Beetles said. “I would listen to Snoop (Dogg) and Method Man and I would create beats to the songs and produce my own stuff.” The beats Beetles created included some of the same elements he still works with today. “I had little projects I would do when I was younger and I go back and listen and realize that I had a 70 bpm (beats per minute) and a warped bass. So I think that even without knowing, I’ve been making this music for a long time,” Beetles said. He also said his favorite part about performing and producing this type of music is the crowd’s energy and excitement during a show. “When the crowd is dancing and getting into it, that’s awesome and it makes it into a huge raging party,” Beetles said. Word of Beetles’ upcoming performance has caused a buzz at some local music stores. Charlotte Kubat, manager at Magnolia Thunderpussy, located at 1155 N. High St., ordered Datsik’s music in preparation for the show.

“We ordered it when people kept asking us about him and we also wanted to check it out,” Kubat said. She also said she does enjoy electronic music but knows less about dubstep and its genre of music. “I listen to dubstep on occasion, but it’s definitely the younger generation’s music,” Kubat said. “I‘ve been to a show before. It‘s the young version of a rave, but I had a great time too.” With the interest in dubstep on the upswing in the mainstream music market, there are some misconceptions about the genre, Beetles said. “Some think that it has changed from being
totally underground chill-out music to mainstream club dance music, and that this change is bad,” Beetles said. He referenced this evolved version of the genre as “brostep” and said he thinks it gives the music untrue negative connotations. “People think that because of the more dance club feel to the music that more “bros” (fraternity brothers) will be going to the shows, but I think that the more people who want to come party and enjoy, then awesome,” Beetles said. Tickets for Thursday’s show are $20, available on The Bluestone’s website.
Professor’s play ‘North’ making its way off Broadway in New York Misty Tull Lantern reporter tull.7@osu.edu

Dubstep artist Datsik is scheduled to perform Sept. 27 at The Bluestone, located at 583 E. Broad St.
Jennifer Schlueter has written four plays, but “North” is the first to make it to the Big Apple. “It is my first off-Broadway play so I’m very excited, I’m very nervous and all of those things,” the assistant professor in Ohio State’s Department of Theater said in an interview on OSU’s Center for Study and Teaching of Writing’s “Writers Talk.” Schlueter, who also was formerly an assistant professor at the University of Oregon in Eugene, has been granted space in OSU’s Mount Hall Studio Theatre for one last production of “North” before heading to New York for a three-week stint off Broadway. “’North’ is about Anne Morrow Lindbergh, who was the wife of Charles Lindbergh, who most people know for
his flight across the Atlantic,” Schlueter said. “She also was a pilot in her own right, and she was a writer. So when my collaborator Christina Ritter and I were looking for a piece to work on we were interested in Anne Lindbergh in part because her writings were so poetic.” Ritter and Schlueter work within the for/word company, the theater company behind “North.” Ritter directs and acts while Schlueter directs and writes for the company. “We are a loose affiliation of artists,” Schlueter said. “We are project based, so I’m in Columbus right now, Christina Ritter, my joint artistic director, is living in Lexington, Ky., one of our central actors Chris Roche is in Philadelphia, another one of our actors is in Montana right now.” Ritter plays Anne Lindbergh in for/ word’s production of “North” and, with Schlueter, shares responsibility of the company’s mission and its movement, Schlueter said.
“We all sort of coalesced around doing ‘North’ in Chicago, we all sort of coalesced around doing ‘Little Book’ in Seattle in the summer of 2011, and now we’re all coming together for this piece and we are motivated by the idea that we can do work that’s project based and not have to run a full season,” Schlueter said. Schlueter’s plays “Little Book” and “North” have been well received by critics in Seattle and Chicago, aiding in building momentum and raising money for the production of “North.” For/word’s website lists four company members and five affiliated artists. Christopher Roche, who plays the lead opposite Ritter, is going with the company to New York for his first taste of the city’s lively theater scene. “I’ve done television in New York and plays around the country, but this
will be my first play in New York,” he said. His character, Antoine de SaintExuperay, is interesting because he was a writer, a real revolutionary during World War II and nobody knows how he died in 1944 because his body has never been found, Roche said. “And he (Saint Exuperay) loved her (Lindbergh’s) writing, and she loved his, and they only met once, but the play is about what could have happened that one time they met,” Roche said. “North” is scheduled to take the stage Saturday for free at 7 p.m. in Mount Hall, located at 1050 Carmack Rd., before it hits New York’s 59E59 Theatres, Theatre B, to run from Oct. 4 through Oct. 28. To listen to the full interview with Schlueter, tune into “Writers Talk’ 7 p.m. Monday on WCRS 98.3 or 102.1 FM.

CD Reviews Mumford’s golden Murder By Death ‘Push and Shove’ is a touch alive in ‘Babel’ marries beauty, terror good album No Doubt CAITLIN ESSIG Asst. arts editor essig.21@osu.edu Mumford & Sons’ single “I Will Wait” from its latest release “Babel” served as the perfect tease to the rest of the album, which released Tuesday. The familiar pluck of the banjo and the sweet lyrics promised the band hadn’t lost its golden touch following 2009’s “Sigh No More.” And the entire album lived up to the promise written within the single’s lyrics, “So I’ll be bold / As well as strong / And use my head alongside my heart.” Aggressive title track “Babel” opens the album and frames it well with the lyrics, “Cause I know my weakness, know my voice / I’ll believe in grace and choice.” The second track “Whispers in the Dark” is a mess. It doesn’t even sound like the band, aside from Marcus Mumford’s distinct voice. “Holland Road” is among the album’s best, an intensely desperate yet hopeful track, as Mumford sings, “And when I’ve hit the ground, neither lost nor found / If you believe in me I’ll still believe.” “Lover of the Light,” is the most beautiful song about love I’ve heard in a long time, followed by its counterpart “Lovers’ Eyes,” an equally beautiful song about love lost. “Reminder” took me by

surprise with its simplicity. It is intimate, as if Mumford is serenading a single listener. “Hopeless Wanderer” is an epic song. If you listen to one track from “Babel,” make it this one. The song transcends from simple and slow into an explosive, addictive track that is best played on repeat. Rounding out the album are three final tracks: “Broken Crown,” “Below My Feet” and “Not With Haste.” The first is a more dark, angry track, followed by “Below My Feet,” which offers some peace with the lyrics, “Let me learn from where I have been / Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn.” The sweet, and, as its name implies, slow final track closes the album nearly perfectly. This album, as Mumford & Sons typically does, touches every emotion. The band produced a 12-song collection of what it does best, pulling at its listeners’ heart strings while performing irresistible gems of music.

ZACH LOW Lantern reporter low.65@osu.edu Murder By Death has always been at its best when playing up the tension between its twin muses: beauty and terror. On its sixth album “Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon,” the group continues its successful streak of dark indie rock records. A completely new sound for the Bloomington, Ind., band, the album opener “My Hill” is like goth pop fusing with bluegrass. In “Lost River” lead vocalist Adam Turla’s rich baritone commands “Hush now, creature / Dry your eyes / I know a place where a body can hide,” as a quickly-picked guitar and Sarah Balliet’s cello strains float before erupting into a sonic burst more akin to the group’s first album, 2002’s “Like The Exorcist, But More Breakdancing.” Later in the newest album, “Ramblin’” is the kind of toughas-nails rock song the group has always excelled at, with Turla snarling “I’ve got nothing to lose.” The guitar work is ferocious and the track must rank among the heaviest songs the band has ever written. Not everything works, though. The upbeat song “I Came Around” sounds like
“Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon” Murder By Death

something the Decemberists’ Colin Meloy would compose in a lazy fit of morbidity. Similarly, “Hard World” does little with its punk rhythm, sounding like it was crafted to keep a Gaslight Anthem crowd interested (Murder By Death often finds itself on the road supporting punk bands, and it is slated to find itself in Columbus opening for Say Anything Oct. 14). Luckily the album picks back up in the home stretch, with the haunting sounds of “Go to the Light,” “Oh, To Be An Animal,” and gripping closer “Ghost Fields.” Over the past 10 years, Murder By Death has carved an impressive niche for itself, playing gorgeous songs about grim subjects. “Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon” continues this tradition, and is one of the band’s most impressive efforts to date.
I have been a No Doubt fan since I was a little kid in the ’90s listening to the albums with my dad. And after the band’s nearly decade-long hiatus and newest release “Push and Shove,” I had no doubt that the band hasn’t changed a bit. Like early No Doubt material, “Push and Shove” relies on frontwoman Gwen Stefani’s distinct voice to lead with the band’s funky and energetic mix of lyrics and music. Thus, any loyal No Doubt fan will undoubtedly “Push and Shove” to pick up a copy of the new album, which released Tuesday. Full of the band’s classic punk rock sound, the album also offers a hint of reggae. The melodies make you want to get up and dance, and the lyrics are as catchy as ever, exemplified in “Easy,” as Stefani sings, “I’m gonna put a white flag in the air / Gonna get my way when I seize the fire / I wanna be with you, I’m dropping everything.” “Settle Down,” the first

single from the album, has been making its way through the radio air waves since its release in July, with lyrics such as, “But you can see it my eyes, you can read on my lips / I’m trying to get a hold on this / And I really mean it this time.” “Undercover” has a quick beat and Stefani sings, “Some things are unexplained / Some people can’t be tamed / But I want to know everything,” in her classic, quirky rhythm that has made No Doubt stand out from other bands over the years. The album is classic No Doubt sound and material through and through, calling to point that its sound has stayed solid despite its downtime. I advise old and new fans to go out and buy the album. You won’t be disappointed, no doubt about it.

Most of us, traditionally, fall in line with our parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; beliefs. They taught us much of what we know and their guidance has helped shape who we are today. I have spent most of my 21 years trying to figure out what it is I believe. After much deliberation, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still not completely sure what that is. I can attribute this to my parents. Since I could barely walk, Chayton Nye both my parents were never nye.87@osu.edu shy to express what they thought. My mother identifies as a moderate Republican and my father is a staunch Democrat. To my knowledge, each has voted a straight ticket in every election they have voted in while Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been alive. But I really believe this has helped me in the long run. My entire life, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve remained neutral and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been open to hear what my mom and dad have had to say. Sometimes, it was nice because it felt like I had a front-row seat to a political debate. Other times, it was frustrating because both sides were such polar opposites. This is a perfect example of both political parties now. Each side claiming they are unequivocally right and unwilling to compromise. Both parties speak about â&#x20AC;&#x153;changeâ&#x20AC;? and make promises that sound great for the American people, only to get lost in the mix once the president takes office. Like most Ohio State students, I was unable to vote in the 2008 presidential election. Looking forward to 2012, my thought process has completely changed. I was very conservative at 17, probably the poster child for Fox News. But that was until I moved away from my small town in Ohio. When I came to Columbus, it was the first time I was able to truly think for myself. After four years of life on my own, I would identify myself as moderately left on most issues. Still, I can assure you that neither side possesses all the answers. That is why it is absolutely paramount that you question whichever side you affiliate yourself with. Be it Democrat or Republican, we must realize that these parties are meant to divide us when really we should be working together to better our nation. When you go to the polls this fall, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just vote for the candidate that your parents would want you to choose. Be a conscious media consumer and formulate your own opinion based on a thorough analysis of each platform. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be afraid to question what it is you stand for. And above all else, understand that compromise is key for success at all levels of humanity.

President Barack Obama speaks at Schiller Park in German Village on Sept. 17 to a crowd of about 4,500.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney speaks in Powell, Ohio, on Aug. 25 to a crowd of about 5,000.
Mitt Romney should be careful about making the election about the somewhat distant past. In an attempt to shift the focus away from his gaffe about the 47 percent of Americans that act like â&#x20AC;&#x153;victimsâ&#x20AC;? who feel â&#x20AC;&#x153;entitled,â&#x20AC;? the Republican presidential nominee has brought up a recently published audio clip in which Obama can be heard saying he supports redistribution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I actually believe in redistribucody cousino tion, at least at a certain level, to cousino.20@osu.edu make sure everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a shot,â&#x20AC;? Obama said in the clip. The problem, though, is the clip is from 1998. That is well over a decade ago, and well over a decade ago, Romney had many other beliefs as well, including redistributing wealth. In his 2002 campaign for governor of Massachusetts, Romneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official website stated he would â&#x20AC;&#x153;protect the current pro-choice status quo,â&#x20AC;? adding â&#x20AC;&#x153;women should be free to choose based on their own beliefs, not the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.â&#x20AC;? Romney also had strong opinions on gay rights, saying while
he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t support gay marriage, he did believe that there should be changes to the recognition of domestic partnership that â&#x20AC;&#x153;includes the potential for health benefits and rights of survivorship.â&#x20AC;? These are the two things that, at least economically, are the focal point of the gay marriage debate. This year though, one of Romneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staffers, Richard Grenell, had to resign because hard-line conservatives were upset that Romney would hire an openly gay man. Perhaps most glaring of all, Romney instituted a mandatory health care law during his time as governor. Under the law Romney signed, those who fall 150 percent to 300 percent under the poverty line get government subsidies. Romney went as far as to even offer advice to Obama as to how to go about the national health care law in a 2009 opinion article published in USA Today. With a past that appears relatively liberal when compared to hardline conservatives, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising that Romney would want to make the debate about previous stances. Romneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;47 percentâ&#x20AC;? remark was made this year, not more than a decade ago. And Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s redistribution comments include the phrase â&#x20AC;&#x153;at least at a certain level.â&#x20AC;? Not unilateral, but at a certain level. A certain level. Like, for example, taking tax dollars from the public and redistributing them to subsidize statewide health care for those who earn less than 150 percent to 300 percent below the poverty line.

Ohio College Republicans: Romney will bring results This is an op-ed submitted by the Ohio State College Republicans and signed by other College Republican members from around the state. At a campaign stop in Dayton, Ohio, in 2008, Barack Obama promised to bring sweeping education reform to America. He argued for expanded choice and greater accountability. He said that it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;time to ask ourselves why other countries are outperforming us in education, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that their kids are smarter than ours; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being smarter about how to educate their kids.â&#x20AC;? We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree more. When Obama visits Bowling Green University and Kent State Sept. 26, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing that â&#x20AC;&#x153;visionâ&#x20AC;? takes precedence over a substantive record to run on. Young Ohioans bought into â&#x20AC;&#x153;visionâ&#x20AC;? in 2008; we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it again, both for his re-election prospects and for our future. What the president has called â&#x20AC;&#x153;our education deficitâ&#x20AC;? compromises our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to compete in an increasingly global economy. As a nation, we have always prided ourselves on the way in which we can out-innovate and out-educate other countries. But how will this remain the case if we fail to bring our education system into the 21st century? Indeed, there is a bipartisan consensus that we can ill afford the perpetual underperformance of our schools. And with skyrocketing tuition rates, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s becoming increasingly clear that students can no longer afford it either. Instead of graduating to jobs and greater opportunities, college students are graduating to student loan debt and their parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes. Half of newly minted graduates find themselves unemployed or underemployed. Even more concerning: in too many quarters of this country, children lack the basic skills they need for any sort of job, let alone to go to college. These are the facts, and they are unacceptable. We need to change course. But unwisely pouring more money into the schools is not the answer. We are already a world leader in spending per student. The policies that got our schools into this mess will not lift them out of it. If government spending helped the situation, we would hear about a decline in the number of schools needing improvement. Younger Americans urgently need new leadership with practical solutions in the White House. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s precisely the kind of leadership Mitt Romney will provide. Romney knows that the way to reform education in America is to increase parental choice
and use the power of the free market to promote accountability and affordability. Drawing from his background as a businessman, he will enact common sense reforms to improve our schools. Romneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan will expand school choice, giving parents greater freedom to choose which school their child attends. He will work with the states to set high standards for schools and ensure that they are held accountable. His policies will focus on attracting the best teachers by eliminating barriers for unnecessary certification requirements, rewarding teachers based on merit and removing ineffective teachers from the classroom. Romney knows that our failing schools and rising graduate debt are crippling the ability of our generation to achieve the American Dream and compete in the global economy in the years ahead. The longer we delay addressing the problems plaguing our educational system, the worse they will become. Substance trumps style and â&#x20AC;&#x153;vision.â&#x20AC;? What young Ohioans are looking for are results, not a reset. After the past three-and-a-half years, results are in short supply with this president.
